I don’t like specific lists of things to accomplish in a year so I don’t vibe with make9s or long term project planning BUT I do love checking off squares and marking off things I did so I’m trying bingo.
No specific patterns or designs, theoretically fiber craft agnostic, hopefully a good mix of being encouraged to try new things without being overly prescriptive about it.
Please play along if you’d like. Interpret the entries in whatever way makes this process most enjoyable for you.
#fiber arts bingo <- tag that I will be tracking
I made fiber arts bingo for 2026 pls play with meeeeee
gf crocheted this to her an she is using it as intended
Work in progress. A kinda huge crocheted dandelion sculpture.

Ok but how long was the voice message
12 minutes
Okay but the public needs to know. What's the knitting drama???
120 hours and a half of crocheting; 50,400 stitches; 2,9 kg of yarn. It measures 1.5mx2m. The most slavic thing I’ve ever made is finally done.
Validate me pls.
This is incredible.
Absolutely stunning crochet!

Want to knit this scarf? You can download my free pattern here! :)
This is called illusion knitting! Basically, you knit a pattern in 2 color stripes, but then you use the difference between the texture of knits and purls to make a pattern appear at a low angle
When you look at it from the aide, a knit stitch looks flat while a purl stitch looks like a little bump. So if you have a pattern of knits and purls you look at from the side, the knit stitches will fade into the background while the purl stitches will stay visible. You use that effect, while keeping a steady stripe pattern, to create the illusion:
From above: plain stripes because your eye focuses on the colors
From the side: you see the pattern of purl stitches because they stick up above the flatter knit stitches

And this lets you do some absolutely AMAZING patterns:
Plain stripey shawl becomes a PORTRAIT
Or, like above, a scarf becomes the One Ring
This is fascinating, thank you for the explanation! I´ve never seen something like it, but I´m also not the most experienced knitter.

The main site has all kinds of interesting knitting stuff, but this page is *just* illusion knitting.
Man, I remember 20 years ago one ring illusion infinity scarves were everywhere online. You make me nostalgic for the nerdy and fandom knitting communities on livejournal
I have completed another crochet monstrosity

It's done! It's done! 🎉🧶
I've been trying to distract myself from the horrors of modern life by knitting unnecessarily complex cable swatches. They are partly inspired by printer's ornaments and other typographic elements.
so drunk rn.
Anyway, i knitted saturn devouring his sun
